Know before you buy
Yes, the stoneware is oven-safe up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes them suitable for warming appetizers or keeping desserts at a consistent temperature before serving.
No, these trays must be hand-washed only. The delicate nature of the handmade stoneware and the unique leaf impressions are best preserved by avoiding the harsh environment of a dishwasher.
Because each piece is individually crafted using actual Basswood leaves, slight variations in the impressions and glaze application are expected. You should consider these differences a hallmark of the artisan process rather than a defect.
Yes, the glaze used on this stoneware set is completely food-safe. You can confidently serve cheese, fruit, or desserts directly on the surface.
Given their artistic design, these trays function beautifully as decorative centerpieces on a dining table or sideboard. When storing, we recommend placing a soft cloth between the pieces to prevent scratching the glazed surfaces.
